Audiobooks: Taking the World by Storm Linda Lee Audiobooks: Taking the World by Storm White Paper Follow us: #fbm20 More information: buchmesse.de/audio 1 Audiobooks: Taking the World by Storm Abstract Audiobooks are the current darling of today’s publishing industry. This paper will examine the trends shaping today’s audiobook market as well as look at what the future may hold for the industry in the era of increasing audio proliferation. In considering new sales and distribution models, this paper looks to illuminate the different models currently available and how they are supporting and shaping the audiobook market’s growth. The paper is written in partnership with Zebralution, which was founded in 2004 as the first digital distributor for inde- pendent music labels in Europe and entered the audiobook market in 2010. Zebralution has gathered interesting data regarding consumer behaviors, which can be used to understand what is driving market growth. Since there is no inter- national standard in data collection and some online retailers withhold sales data as proprietary information, the data provided by Zebralution gives a useful but admittedly partial snapshot at one segment of the consumer market, hoping that publishers and further interested parties will be able to use this information as guidance for their future publishing plans.

Two years on from our hugely successful inaugural event in Brussels it gives me great pleasure to welcome you all to the 2009 World Copyright Summit in Washington, DC. This year’s slogan for the Summit – “New Frontiers for Creators in the Marketplace” – illustrates perfectly what we aim to achieve here: remind to the world that creators’ contributions are fundamental for cultural, economic and social development but also that creators – and those who represent them – face several daunting challenges in this new digital economy. It is imperative that we bring to the forefront of political debate the creative industries’ future and where we, creators, fit into this new landscape. For this reason we have gathered, under the CISAC umbrella, all the stakeholders involved one way or another in the creation, production and dissemination of creative works.

  • Report by CEO Dr. Harald Heker
    GENERAL ASSEMBLY GEMA 10 JUNE 2021 REPORT OF THE CEO AND CHAIRMAN OF THE MANAGING COMMITTEE DR. HARALD HE- KER Dear members, Our last General Assembly took place early October 2020. Back then, silence ruled Germany’s stages. Today, it is still quiet. A silence which affects us all. And a stark contrast to GEMA’s bustling activities. Even though the licensing operations for the live sector disappeared in general, we have been busy working on other measures. Measures - To cushion the effects of the pandemic for our members and customers at least a little, - To lobby politicians for specific subsidies for creators, performers and publishers affected by the pandemic, - To push for digitisation processes to be accelerated. - And we were, of course, intensively involved when it came to the implementation of the EU Copy- right Directive into German law. Let me focus on this topic first as it has created a lot of upheaval in the last few weeks. On 20 May, the German Bundestag adopted the EU Copyright Directive into national law. It was the biggest reform of copyright in a long time. This process had, however, started more than 10 years ago. Back then, we already took a strong stand in Brussels for a new copyright. That was because the lack of a governing law made it possible for host providers such as YouTube to refuse to adequately pay creators and to simply walk away from the negotiating table. A political solution was therefore urgently needed. And GEMA contributed significantly that this solution was finally reached. In 2019, the EU Directive was finally adopted.

    Warner Music Group Annual Report 2007 NYSE: WMG www.wmg.com A Message from Chairman and CEO Edgar Bronfman, Jr. Dear Fellow Shareholders: Industry transitions are times of great opportunity, and there is no doubt that the recorded music industry is in the midst of a significant and fundamental transformation. Of course, opportunity does not come without its challenges and this year, Warner Music Group continued to meet and address the challenges of this transition head on, laying the groundwork for future growth. The transformation of the recorded music industry will require not only a clear vision and a progressive strategy to radically alter traditional business models, but also leadership, continued financial discipline and resilience. At Warner Music Group, we are creating the foundation for future growth and believe we have the right strategy in place not only to effectively navigate through these difficult times, but also to reap the rewards of the recorded music industry’s evolution. Looking back on our fiscal 2007, we made meaningful progress in many different areas. Sustaining Digital Leadership During fiscal 2007, digital revenue grew 30% to $460 million or 14% of total revenue and, in the U.S. we once again reported digital SoundScan album share substantially above our physical share. Building upon our digital leadership is essential as the recorded music business rapidly shifts from physical to digital. We entered into selective partnerships across business models that are aimed at driving expanded monetization of our content through new products in the digital space. These partnerships included the acquisition of a majority stake in Zebralution, a German digital distribution company, as well as deals with social networking site, imeem, and online retailer and music discovery site, Lala.com.

  • We Could Define Rafha Madrid the Same Way and with the Same Adjectives We All Do Describe Many Great Dj’S from the Best Clubs Around the World
    RAFHAMADRID.COM FACEBOOK.COM/RAFHAMADRIDMUSIC MIXCLOUD.COM/RAFHAMADRID SOUNDCLOUD.COM/RAFHAMADRID YOUTUBE.COM/USERS/RAFHAMADRID INSTAGRAM.COM/RAFHAMADRID We could define Rafha Madrid the same way and with the same adjectives we all do describe many great dj’s from the best clubs around the world. However, there is something unique that sets Rafha apart: his beat. Rafha Madrid’s beat intertwines from different brushes of electronic music and house music, which makes his sets such an exuberant and energetic experience where the audience is unable to stop dancing. Rafha Madird started his Dj career by chance since he had never envisioned himself as a Dj in his youth. Nonetheless, he has always been a night owl, enthusiastic in a dance floor, and passionate of a sportive life. With such spirit, he found himself one night in a friend’s house playing around with a mixing table where he discovered what now is his greatest passion; music. Rafha has stated that “the best of being a Dj is being able to think and feel the music where then you can transform it into different sensations for the audience through the mixing table. What matters the most is to reach your audience’s hearts through music.” Rafha started as a Dj in 2005 when he was only 22 years old in Chiko Malo, a colorful and small club in Barcelona now long gone. Chiko Malo was a spot to pay a visit in Barcelona’s nightlife back then. His sudden career as a Dj was hard initially due to the difficulty to break in into the scene, until he played a warm up session in Café Olé Ibiza Festival in 2012 in Razzmatazz club in Barcelona.
